Description
This single producer lot comes from Mr. Gobena Bendo in Yirgacheffe.
Mr. Gobena Bendo is a 65-year-old farmer with a lifetime of experience in coffee production. He inherited 10 hectares of land from his father and hopes to pass it on to some of his children, who still live in the same village. For many years, he has relied on income from coffee production to support his livelihood. This income covers his expenses for health, transportation, and other daily needs.
Mr. Gobena produces 7 to 8 quintals of coffee per hectare and also grows cereals on part of his land to meet his family’s annual food consumption needs. To assist with the farmwork, he employs two part-time workers, in addition to the help he receives from his adult children, who live nearby with their parents.
The cup has lots of fresh nectarine, fresh peach, cooked pear, and caramel flavors with complex acidity and delicate fruit-like sweetness.
